Behavioral Technical

The interview process was absolutely terrible. I had a third round interview scheduled, and they emailed me one hour before to reschedule. We rescheduled for the next day at 1:30 PM. Then, at 1:31 PM, while I was already in the waiting room, they emailed again to reschedule. I expressed my concern, and HR responded saying 'things happen.' The next day, I received an email stating they were not moving forward, and I never even got to complete the third round after they wasted my time.

Coding Technical Behavioral

The interview process was pretty simple. First, there was a 60-minute HackerRank coding test. After that, if you did well, you had a screening interview where they asked some basic stuff like your preferred work location, GPA, and graduation year. Then, a 60-minute CodePair interview with an employee to go over your HackerRank results and do more coding problems. Lastly, a 30-minute final video interview to discuss your resume and other questions.
